Abstract:
Engineering Digital Twins (EDT) presents a multifaceted challenge that goes beyond managing the lifecycle of a Digital Twin (DT) in isolation, requiring continuous and dynamic interaction with the lifecycle of the corresponding Actual Twin (AT). This vision paper examines the deeply intertwined lifecycles of DTs and ATs, arguing that effective engineering approaches must embrace their mutual and adaptive evolution over time. The authors propose placing evolution at the core of Digital Twin engineering, outline emerging research directions to manage this evolution, and present a roadmap for addressing the associated challenges and opportunities. The paper serves as a call to action for the EDT community to adopt evolution as a core principle in DT engineering.
